Why the hell should we sell Danilo when he is a fantastic squad player to have?

On the right we are solid, even if Walker is having a mare this season. The left back part is really a thing we need sorting really fast this summer with two top players, but I thik we are going to buy only one.

I have no idea how good Chillwell is, but if you lot endorss him it is good enough for me. I would try and have a sniff for Alaba, he would be a really serious upgrade.

probably not since tricky richy edgehill


Micah won't be happy he is the forgotten man.

Chilwell to me looks ok, has a good engine and is coachable and the right age and nationally. Luke Bolton has gone on loan, will be good to see how he gets on this season.

Is he playing fullback at Wycombe, though? As far as I know, he was usually played as winger or even as a striker at occasions for the EDS.

Rumour is that Mendy is back in Barcelona having more treatment on his knee!

FFS just fuck him off in the summer. No ill feeling towards him, but he's not dependable and is more injury prone than Darren Anderton.

The most expensive fucked up purchase we have made in donkeys and we will be stuck with him as no cunt wants an injury prone player in their squad.

Wowowowow!! Mehrez holds that title. At least Mendy has some comedy value. Mehrez is a boring prick. He probably starts discussions on forums about Winston Churchill

Luke Bolton is 100% not a left back, not sure he can even kick with his left foot. Arguably not a right back either even if we have dabbled with him in that role on the pre season tour.


Absolutely right that his career at City has mostly been a mixture of wide right attacking or center forward.

Mendy is not a bad signing he has had a wicked run of injuries. Some on here live to moan and scapegoat. It’s in Some City fans DNA.

Yes we need a new 1st choice left back and Mendy can be their understudy when fit.

We are not able to rely on Mandy through no fault of his own and so we are now going to have to lay out for his replacement. That may impact on the much needed cover for Fernandinho

No, it's clearly Raheem to blame, or his mum.

Pep has confirmed that Mandy is not fit but makes no mention if another operation or visit to Barca. Kompany nor available either.
